Hi! Here are some photos of a project that I've had on the backburner for more than a year or two now, and which still is unfinished: a model of my parents' house.

(...) Very cool. This sort of architecture renders so well in Lego with the right hands and you seem to have those hands. My favourite detail is the pipe down the side and the handrails but it is all very nicely done. Thanks, Tim (18 years ago, 9-Apr-06, to lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.town)

Ah, the cab windows seemed harder to pull off than the side windows, which is why I focused on those. For the nose though, I don't see why he wouldn't be able to use the new window on the crane car in the freight set. I didn't mean the Krokodil (...)

However, it does look like there's a green train windscreen on the crane truck you could invert. For windows (...) (19 years ago, 8-Feb-06, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build.arch)

Hi all! I am working on a new engine (TE116), and need some windows for the motor section. Plane windows are fine, but I'd like some rounded windows, which are a bit wider than high. I have been thinking about SNOT, turning them 90 degreed, but they (...) (19 years ago, 8-Feb-06, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build.arch)
